    1. Thirteen=45 trump our 45th president. 13 Colonies=88 like Trump. Trump was born on flag day. He went to Wharton in Philly. William Penn died 300 years ago. Phila Unite=52 like the SB. US is divided and they want us to unite. Snake=50 like 50 states the 50th floor fire. Cavs with 50 wins. Funny if the game ends with 223 points total. Flag was sewn in Philly.

  4. Ram also this, as I was trying to figure out how else 76ers ties to Trump and found a huge clue! Here you go:
    it will probably be 76ers vs. Warriors. The answer lies with the Syracuse Nationals and their best player back then Johnny Kerr. 50th floor fire at Trump Tower look who lost in the 1950 nba finals and who won the 1954-1955 NBA Championship. Syracuse Nationals went to Philly, Trump went from NY to Philly for college. Philly Philly! So 76ers are a NY team like Trump is a Pres from NY.

  6. So, what about this fourth seed? It turns out the recent history of making the conference finals as the No. 4 team is actually pretty good. It's getting beyond that semifinal round that is quite rare.

    Here are some notes to consider...

    * The 4th seed in either the East or West has made the conference finals 10 times in NBA history. The last time was in 2013, the Memphis Grizzlies. That was the fourth straight year a four-seed has reached the conference finals, including 2011 when the Scott Brooks-led Oklahoma City Thunder got there. Six times since 2006 has a four-seed reached the conference finals: 2006 Mavs, 2007 Jazz, 2010 Celtics, 2011 Thunder, 2012 Celtics, 2013 Grizzlies. Six times in 11 years? Those odds aren't bad.

    *Only four times has a 4th seed reached the NBA Finals. The last time was the 2010 Celtics, who lost to the Lakers. The 2006 Mavericks got there and lost to the Heat, and the 1978 Sonics reached the finals, only to lose to the Bullets for Washington's lone NBA championship. The 1969 Celtics also made the finals as a four-seed.

    *Those 1969 Celtics were the only four-seed ever to win the NBA championship. That team, however, was not your average four-seed. They won the NBA title the year before in 1968 and each year from 1959 to 1966. They also won in 1957. It was the greatest dynasty in the history of the game, based on titles.

    *Ten times has a team ranked lower than four made the conference finals: 1981 Kings (5) and Rockets (6), 1984 Suns (6), 1987 Sonics (7), 1989 Bulls (6), 1990 Suns (5), 1994 Jazz (5) and Pacers (5), 1995 Rockets (6), 1999 Knicks (8).

    *Three times has a team lower than the four seed reached the NBA Finals: 1981 Rockets (6), 1995 Rockets (6), 1999 Knicks (8). Two of those teams have connections to the current Wizards. Brooks was a bench player on the 1995 Rockets and GM Ernie Grunfeld was fired midseason from the same role with the 1999 Knicks.

    *Only once has a team lower than the four-seed won the championship: the 1995 Rockets

    *1969 only time 4th seed won Finals (Celtics) the #1 from East lost in the First Round and #1 seed from the west lost in the Nba Finals
    (49 years ago)

    Bill Russell won as a player & coach


    This year 4th seed
    •Cavs
    •Thunder

  16. Desiree Linden becomes first US women to win Boston Marathon since 1985. Everyone keeps talking about the 85-86 season. They’re calling it an upset. The narrative this year.

    1. Born in 83 same year 76ers won their last national championship and no one else says 85-86 I found that connection.

      Delete
    2. Oh ok I see you. I been keeping tabs on that connection. Some other stuff I’m seeing:
      The new Wendy’s 2 for 6 deal. And I just saw a Hulu commercial of a dad and son sitting on the couch watching Doc McStuffins. The son is sleeping and the dad changes it to the NBA Playoffs and you hear Ernie Johnson say “game 7 of the western conference finals”. The kid wakes up and the dad flips it back to the cartoon.

  22. More info for your consideration. (OKC)

    Melo passed the likes of AI, Ray Allen, Ewing, Vince Carter, Jerry West and Reggie Miller in career points and is 19th on the all-time list (8th prime).
    Melo was traded on 9/25, the 268th day of the year (68). leaving 97 days left, the 25th prime.
    9/2+5= 9/7 (97). The SuperSonics won their only championship in 79.
    September 25 has numerology of 1260 (216) and 630 (36)
    Clevelands area code and 3-6, LeBron's new finals record after he gets swept. The finals will end Game 4 on 6/8. 68 has a sum of 216 and leaves 206 days left, Seattle's area code 206(Seattle SuperSonics).
    The day Melo was traded was the 268th day. this can also represent LeBron going 2-6 in his 8 straight finals.
    From 9/25 to Game 1 of the Finals 5/31 it's 8 months and 6 days (game 4 6/8), 35 weeks.
    (1 day after Billy Donovan's 53rd bday)
    8th consecutive Finals, 6th loss.

    The time from 9/25 to 6/8 is 8 months 14 days. 8th straight, cavs go 1-4 in FInals. 36 weeks.

    June 8 also has numerology of 25 and 52 and September has 9 letters.

    Carmelo = 7 letters, Anthony = 7 letters, wears #7. (777)
    777 has a sum of 1216.

    Lastly, it's definitely no coincidence why Melo was traded on 9/25. His bday is 5/29, the day that leaves 216 days left on the year.
